Rahul Dravid's Poor REPORT CARD As India Head Coach: 6 Big Tournaments Men In Blue Lost In His Tenure; In Pics
After India lost the 2nd ODI vs West Indies, it is now certain now that since Rahul Dravid's appointment as head coach, India have never returned home without losing a game abroad. Dravid came in as head coach of Indian men's cricket team in November 2021. Since then, India have achieved a few things and lost some big and key series and tournaments. His list of achievements include qualifying for the World Test Championship 2023 final and beating Australia in Border-Gavaskar trophy. But the list of failure is long. Take a look at all key tournaments/series India have lost so far in his tenure.

In December 2022, Bangladesh beat India at home in the ODI series. India were 0-2 down in the series before Ishan Kishan smashed a double ton in the third ODI, helping them win the last match. But the series was lost to lower-ranked Bangladesh. (Image: ANI)
Loss to Australia in ODIs at home in 2023
India rarely loses bilateral series. And never at home. But it all changed in 2023 when Australia came from behind to win the last two matches of the three-game series to lift the trophy. (Image: ANI)
Lost Test and ODI series vs South Africa
South Africa whitewashed India's ODI team when they toured the Rainbow Nation in 2021-22. India had lost the the three-match Test series after getting a 1-0 lead. A poor show abroad yet again. (Image: ANI)
Asia Cup 2022 debacle
India failed to qualify for the final of Asi Cup 2022. This was right before the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022. Kohli and Rohit were both heard speaking how this tournament was a prep ground for the World Cup ahead. Same sort of approach is being seen as we approach the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023 too.

Lost World Test Championship Final
India made to an ICC final, the only one in Dravid's tensure so far. But the Men in Blue were outplayed by a strong Australian outfit. This was India's second successive loss in the WTC final after they had failed to win it in 2021. (Image: ANI)
Lost T20 World Cup 2022
India failed to book a spot in the T20 World Cup 2022, getting blown away by England in the semi-final. Billed as one of the favourites to win the tournament, India never looked a dominant side throughout the competition. Not playing Yuzvendra Chahal, India's leading wicket-taker in T20Is, in even one match shocked a lot of people. (Image: ANI)
